ABRAHAM
MODULE 5: SESSION 21: Isaac’s Birth
The biblical authors use literary design and key linking words to both convey Sarah’s joy and echo her doubt at the birth of Yitskhaq. As we think about how to approach these stories, the macro view is just as important to consider as the micro view. When God’s chosen partners behave unjustly, God must…

MODULE 5: Abraham Surrenders His Sons
SESSION 20: Abraham Endangers Sarah Again
Genesis 20:1-22:19 deals with the unresolved tension over the promised seed. Avraham chooses deception once again, so Avimelek acts as his own intercessor. The Hebrew Bible regularly critiques its own human heroes, providing a realistic portrait of the people…

ABRAHAM
MODULE 4: SESSION 18: Lot Delivered From Destruction
Lot imitates his uncle’s righteous hospitality but from a compromised location. The text paints an ambivalent portrait of Lot’s character. In their sexual violence, the men of Sodom mirror and invert the illicit union of Heaven and Earth from Genesis 6. The biblical authors craft this…

ABRAHAM
MODULE 4: SESSION 17: Abraham Intercedes for Lot
When Yahweh enlists a covenant partner, he consistently chooses to limit himself to act in and through his covenant partners. Sodom and Gomorrah are described with vocabulary from all the previous stories of violence and injustice, and they become emblematic of these themes throughout the…
